sidered well-studied, with all species being known on the basis of both sexes (with the exception of A. nigromaculata (Schenkel, 1963), which is known only by the female holotype). Two Araniella species have been recorded from India: A. villanii Zamani, Marusik et Šestáková, 2020, known additionally from Iran and Kazakhstan, and A. cucurbitina (Clerck, 1757), although the record of this species is probably a misidentification. Recently, we had the opportunity to examine additional material of this genus from the Western Himalaya and detected two new species. Also, we recognized that one more species has been described from this region but currently classified in Araneus Clerck, 1757. The goal of this paper is to describe two new Araniella species and to provide comments on the other species of this genus known from India.
